Contributing sentiments towards policy:

46% : The judge called the case "perhaps one of the most troubling cases" for the community in Colleton County, the broader state of South Carolina, the victims, the legal community, and law enforcement.
31% : The judge also opined that the crimes for which Alex Murdaugh was convicted qualify for the death penalty but said he did not question the state's judgment not to seek capital punishment.
